FAQ: Forex trading

Full FAQ

The Forex (Foreign Exchange) is the global currency market, where one currency is exchanged for another. It is the most liquid market in the world, open 24 hours a day from Monday to Friday. In CFD trading, you speculate on changes in the exchange rate of a pair without physically holding the currencies.

A major pair always includes the US dollar (EUR/USD, GBP/USD) and concentrates the bulk of global liquidity, hence very tight spreads. A cross pair does not include the dollar (GBP/JPY, EUR/JPY) and generally shows higher volatility.

RaiseFX offers leverage of up to 1:500 on currency pairs, subject to eligibility conditions. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses: rigorous risk management is essential.

The windows of greatest volatility correspond to the London session (from 09:00, Paris time) and the New York session (from 14:30). The London/New York overlap in the early afternoon offers the deepest liquidity of the day.

The pip is the smallest unit of variation of a currency pair. For most pairs, it corresponds to the fourth decimal place (0.0001). For pairs involving the Japanese yen, it corresponds to the second decimal place (0.01).

Yes. Our infrastructure, combined with MetaTrader 5, is perfectly calibrated to accommodate Expert Advisors (EAs). Many traders develop algorithms to exploit the ranges of the most volatile pairs.
